  i used to go out in service and i always felt not wanted.

  i would meet for service and if they could they would send me home, no one wanted me with them in their car groups.

  and yes i did shower before going.

  within a year...we've come out of org and lost all our friends...... we get shunned by all along with family members .... we have moved house....... and my youngest son ,7yrs, had to be taken out of his school because he couldn't cope with the shunning of me and his dad....... and recently i lost my husband, and my kids have lost their dad....he walked out on us 6weeks ago.. .

  my friends....fellow apostates, have been invaluable to me and have been there from the word go.....i love them all so much... but lately, after doing so well and coping admirably considering.........he texted me tonight to say that ....some of my friends "have more than one face and would have me believe they only have my best interests at heart all of the time.

  Was Lot a Total Ignoramus?

  by cameo-d in

  2. bible

  if this town of sodom was *supposedly* all homosexuals..... why would lot throw his virgin daughters out to them when the crowd came to his house?.

  were these girls ugly and needed help with make-up or finding their colors?.

  why would lot think that homosexuals would be happy having the company of his virgin daughters?.

  Does the WTS think they have immunity from Duet 18;20-22?

  by jookbeard in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  as far as i can remember i have never seen any counter argument from the wts in refuting this scripture in any of it's publications.

  they call themselves the elijah class, the jonnadab class, the greater david, the faithful &wise servant, the governing body, the faithful and discreet slave(lol) etc, and even by their own admission's they have been wrong when their light got brighter in making bible prophesies, the failed prophesies of 1874,1914,1919,1935,1975 and the recent lies and failed prophesies concerning the generation and the cut off date for anointed christians of 1935, show this.

  so the passage from deut is clearly very serious if those who have spoken in gods name things that have failed to come true, the bottom line is death to that prophet , pure and simple.

  My life ... and how JWD came to be - Part 5

  by Simon in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  my life ... and how jwd came to be - part 1. my life ... and how jwd came to be - part 2. my life ... and how jwd came to be - part 3. my life ... and how jwd came to be - part 4. i swear, i thought it was only a couple of years at most since i wrote part 4 of "my life and how jwd came to be".

  i re-read it after someone posted to it and brought it back on active topics and it was kind of prophetic in a way ... well, i had the 5 years part right if nothing else:.

  it would be nice to visit the site (or whatever one is around then) in 5 years time to let people know how we're doing and find only a few of the same people still around.

  How many of you knew about the"Jesus is not your Mediator" teaching when you were JWs??

  by Lady Liberty in

  2. beliefs

  hi everyone.... just curious how many of you knew when you were active, about the societys official teaching regarding jesus the mediator.

  i was floored to find in my research, that they teach jesus is the mediator for the 144,000 only.

  and it is only by our association with them that we might have salvation.. i don't know about you guys but i was blown away when i learned they taught this.

  didn't know if this has been addressed before , but it's kinda interesting.

  when we were witnesses we were always told,oh!

  What Is Significance, If Any, of 1914?

  by AGuest in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  may you all have peace.... and may you know that there is absolutely no significance to the year 1914, other than with historical value to this system of things (i.e., certain world leader assassinated; world war i...

  but, with reference to my lord 'arriving' and beginning his rulership, by the spirit of my father that is in me, holy spirit, by means of christ, i say to you that:.

  1. my lord began ruling from the moment he was installed and inaugurated... as a king and priest... 'in the manner of melchizedek'... which installation and inauguration was evidenced... by the outpouring of holy spirit at pentecost... 30 ce (sorry, dear ones, but 33ce is an erroneous date contrived by the wtbts to make their 607bce, etc., 'fit'.
